West Yellowstone Snowshoeing

Snowshoe Yellowstone

---

Wander trails and spy wildlife while enjoying the satisfying crunch of snow underfoot.

At Yellowstone, snowshoeing offers a fun and easy way to see the park in winter. Today’s snowshoes are a far cry from the clunky equipment of yesteryear; they’re made with aircraft-grade materials, are easy to slip on and off, and take about two minutes to master.

Local snowshoe outfitters cater to beginners and offer West Yellowstone snowshoeing tours lasting from two hours to full days. Dress in layers and snow-type boots, and bring water, energy bars or trail mix, and binoculars. The Rendezvous Ski Trail system, which is just steps from the Park Gate Lodges, is a popular place to take a snowshoe walk.
